Sustainability Project: The Bustardthorpe Development York Racecourse Brick manufacturer: York Handmade Brick Company Architect: Dawson Williamson Architects The Bustardthorpe Development was designed and constructed in accordance with the ambitious strategy and action plan of Green Knavesmire 300, York Racecourse’s commitment to sustainability. The commitment is embedded in the belief from everyone working within York racecourse that they are custodians of the land and the buildings and therefore have a duty to take care of the environment and its place in the local community. For this reason, every aspect of the design and build was considered to have the lowest possible environmental impact, from energy creation to water use, materials and the team needed to build it. It was particularly important to use local suppliers including 70,000 locally thrown handmade clay bricks, both to support the local economy and reduce emissions through transport.
